I just discovered your journal through some fortunate linking. And, o mai. You are officially my new favourite fanfic writer of all time. In all the ten years I've been reading fanfic, I don't think I've come across anyone who writes like this.

I hereby officially declare you a genius ^^

asdfaslkdgjas;gjalsjdfa;sdkfj So I just rewatched Boondock Saints because I had this sudden idea to write a Supernatural/Boondock Saints crossover, and I remember seeing you with Boondock Saints fic over at comment_fic, so I decided to check out your stuff after finishing up the movie.

GUH. The emotion at the end, omg. It's so heavy and tangible and it's like I can just reach out and feel it. And this line:

He kisses him, his mouth pressed hard against his brother’s, giving him his breath, his life, his promise. One day his wrists will bear the scars of his devotion, and then the world will get a chance to see the proof of a love that’s already broadcast unheard in every heartbeat, already written unseen on every inch of his skin.

So beautiful. I love it ♥♥♥

Awww, I'm so happy that you felt compelled to come and read more of my work, and even happier that you liked what you found! These two characters have such an amazingly intense bond, and it's really great to hear that I was able to bring that across in the fic. I happen to believe that a MacManus kiss would be an event of time-stopping magnitude, so I'm particularly pleased to see you cite that moment as a favorite, haha.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting!
